There's some damage that Thursday's storm left behind after plenty of rain and wind.

In some parts of the metro more than 4 inches of water came down, and all that moisture can be problematic.

For example, on Cornhusker Road near 192nd street, an emergency bridge repair was in order after a sudden rush of water removed dirt near the bridge.

Nearly 3 inches of rain fell in Sarpy County in the span of a few hours late Thursday.

"And when it came down through that hill, it funneled into that underpass and caused that back wall and the earth out of it," Sarpy County highway foreman Rod Ripley said.

If left unnoticed, the missing earth could be dangerous. Luckily, crews were keeping an eye on the KETV forecast and standing by to respond.

"You did a great job predicting it. Like I said, we were prepared, to be honest with you," Ripley said. "Our men were out last night and they closed the road off until we could get daylight, assess the damage, and the structure was sound. Just the earth had taken away."

While things have calmed down, the creek at 48th Street near the West Papio Trail was full and moving fast.

"It made it to the toe of the slope over there, and with the bike path as you can see it went over top of that. Bellevue will be through here with their equipment to clean off the trail, and then it's up to us to get the debris off the pier," Ripley said.

Besides the washed-up debris and missing dirt, officials said none of the bridges sustained any major damage.
